A brilliant collection of original compositions for jazz quintet, this album effuses an unusual cohesion, depth and beauty. While rooted in jazz, the music reflects influences ranging from ECM jazz, latin music and even a hint of spice from her native India.
'A New Leaf' is pianist-composer Ramona Borthwick's debut album offering as a leader. Featuring Ramona (piano, voice), Noel Borthwick (guitar), Phil Grenadier (trumpet), Fernando Huergo (bass), Ziv Ravitz (drums) and Esperanza Spalding (voice), this all-original CD effuses an unusual cohesion, depth & beauty.
While rooted in the jazz tradition, Ramona's well-crafted, lyrical and richly textured compositions reflect influences that range from ECM jazz, latin music and even a hint of spice from her native India.
A compelling and distinctive CD release from a fresh new voice.
*** Quotes ***
"On this new CD, Ramona Borthwick's first, she displays a wonderful talent for composition and imagination in the various settings she chose for the pieces. Her playing is also creative and energetic. If this is her first installment, we can eagerly keep track of Ramona's coming chapters. Something nice is developing here."
~ KENNY WERNER, pianist, composer, author
"Here's a fantastic recording by pianist/singer Ramona Borthwick. All her own compositions, the tunes are rich, lush, and highly emotional. All the musicians play beautifully together and Ramona's playing is very much her own. The tracks are interesting and entertaining, and the recording sound itself is excellent. Bravo!"
~ JACK WILKINS, jazz guitarist, composer |
